Activities in Esbjerg

  1. A

    Scandlines

    In July and August Scandlines offers a 1¾-hour sightseeing cruise around the harbour and into Ho bay, with a chance of seeing seals in their natural habitat. Tours operate from Monday to Thursday and depart from the ferry harbour in Esbjerg two or three times a day, and from Nordby on Fanø once daily. Enquire at the tourist office for the schedule.

  2. Nord-Line

    Nord-Line offers a longer (2½ hours) cruise with a nature focus (as opposed to Scandlines’ sightseeing aim). There is a nature guide on board, and you stand a better chance of seeing seals. Tours operate on weekdays from Esbjerg (from Museum Pier 1) and Fanø’s Nordby from late May to late October.
